If you read your ebook reader a lot at night or in the dark, then throw away those additional lights or lighted cases. Barnes and Noble have up for pre-order their Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight. With a click of a switch you can turn on the GlowLight to illuminate the e-ink display. Brightness is adjustable via a slider switch, and the unit also comes with a pre-installed anti-glare screen protector. With the now standard 6″ e-ink screen, the unit weighs in at 7 ounces.

Pre-orders are expected to ship on May 1 2012. Retail price is $139 USD.
